1
Cook the Bacon
In a skillet over medium heat, cook the bacon slices until crispy, about 5-7 minutes. Remove and set aside on a paper towel to drain.
2
Prepare the Bread
Spread butter on one side of each slice of sourdough bread. On the unbuttered side, spread mayonnaise evenly.

3
Layer the Ingredients
On the mayonnaise side of one slice of bread, layer the smoked turkey, followed by the crispy bacon, cheddar cheese, lettuce, and tomato slices. Top with the second slice of bread, buttered side facing out.

4
Grill the Sandwich
In the same skillet, heat over medium heat. Carefully place the sandwich in the skillet and grill for about 3-4 minutes on each side, or until the bread is golden brown and the cheese is melted.

5
Serve
Once grilled, remove the sandwich from the skillet, slice in half, and serve immediately with additional lettuce and tomato if desired.
